For those who argue that school shootings are a gun problem, it’s worth considering that in the aftermath of World War I, countless individuals had access to guns without experiencing these widespread, senseless acts of violence for no reason. Therefore, it’s clear that your argument has inherent shortcomings. Moreover, I believe altering gun laws could potentially lead to the establishment of a black market, encouraging individuals to seek illegal firearms, and resulting in an increase in overall violence.
You dont know jack shit about guns in Europe during the interwar period, almost the entirety of Europe had stronger gun control laws at the time than the United States has ever had.
What I do know is that a lot of people had guns, and the senseless killing of people for no reason was not common back then.
Actually I’m a lot of places it was. If you look at what happened in Germany in the early 20s with the rise of Freikorps and other ex soldiers roaming the streets and looking for trouble that is exactly what ex soldiers were doing at that time.
Assuming an unfiltered view 100 years into the past is a poor foundation for an argument.
